You and your husband had gained a reputation amongst the Black community in New Orleans as being the best and most reliable painters in all of the Bayou. When your husband joined the Navy you were approached by the Navy to paint PT Boats at the marina you couldn’t believe it. You’d start making more money than ever before and doing your part to protect your husband fighting in the war. It felt good to be recognized for all your hard work and to have a steady cool job.
